Golf Course Reviews: California, Arizona, Nevada, Texas, Oregon, Washington, Colorado, Utah, Florida, Hawaii!Played Moorparc CC yesterday, 2/22, as part of the GK Match Play Finals. Course was in great condition, Fairways were firm and rolling well, greens rolling true, medium fast pace. Several greens had more unrepaired ball marks than I expect from a "country club" type course, our group fixed ours plus many others on a few of them. Bunkers have light, fluffy sand (I tested a few). The GPS in the carts is nice, gives distance to the pin, as well as front and back of greens, and fairway obstacles as well.
Staff was super friendly as well.
An overall enjoyable course, definitely in the "high end" of the scale.

Played this morning, 7:30 tee time. Played as a twosome with fellow GK'er fasteddieboy, 4 hour round. Greens were in good shape, rolling pretty fast, and hard, not very receptive to incoming shots, many rolled off the edges, and chips really rolled out. Tee boxes in pretty good condition, as were the bunkers. Fairways were typical So Cal winter condition, hard and fast. Lots of unrepaired divots though, both fasteddieboy and myself ended up in a few that resulted in what we thought were good tee shots turned into hit and pray second shots.
A marshall actually asked us if we wanted to play through the group in front of us, refreshing to see them having their eye on pace of play, as it seems most marshalls these days just cruise around and wave hi to everyone!
A little drizzle here and there and some wind made playing from the 6800-ish yard blue tee's feel a little longer than usual, but all around a good day on a pretty good course.

Played 12/21 with rgm2525, 11 am tee time. Only $16 to walk (I belong to their "Player's Club"), total bargain. It was a rare non windy afternoon in Palmdale, low 60's and sunny, pretty nice winter day in sunny So Cal!!
Course is in great shape, especially considering it's getting down into the 20's and 30's at night in Palmdale. Fairways and green in great condition, greens running pretty quick. Tee boxes level and in good shape, bunkers have nice fluffy sand (from first hand experience!)
I have no issues driving the 50 minutes or so to get here, as the course is always in good shape.

Played Sunday (11/13), went out just before 11 am, went out as a twosome with my 5 year old (kind of a 1 1/2 some, he plays a "scramble" off my shots). Played through 1 group on the front, finished 9 holes in just over 1 hour. Back 9 took about 1.5 hours, caught a few groups.
Course is in pretty good shape. Greens were punched fairly recently, punch marks still visible, grass hadn't been cut in a few days and they were rolling SLOW. Sand traps had nice fluffy sand (I tested a few), fairways were in good shape. Tee boxes were pretty tore up, they need some work.
Although this is the closest course to my house I rarely play here due to it's executive course shortness, and usually it's pretty backed up. I was pleasantly surprised by the better than average conditions, and quick round, even playing with my young son.

Played today with Johnny GK, Nick and Ron. Course is in great shape, fairways and greens are well groomed and super smooth. Greens rolled a little slower than I recalled from past rounds here, but smooth and true. Tee boxes were in great shape as well.
As Nick states in the last review, the native rough they have between most of the fairways and outer borders of the course is super deep, if your ball rolls through the primary rough, good luck finding it, and even better luck to you should you try to play out of it.
Overall I was very pleased with the condition of Olivas right now, top notch course for sure. We even lucked out and had virtually no wind to speak of, pretty rare, but enjoyed by us all!

Played this afternoon in the first round of the GK North Match play. Course was in great shape, this was my first time here and it lived up to it's reputation. Keep the ball in the fairways, there's little chance of finding it should it stray through the rough, most are bordered by ravines or hillsides.
I'll definitely make it a point to get back up here.

Played Sunday 1/3. During the winter they do 9 am shotgun starts in lieu of frost delays that can screw up the whole day. I hadn't been out here in a year or so, as the course had taken a turn for the worse. I was pleasantly surprised to see that the course is in exceleent condition!! Especially for the middle of winter in the desert. Our round was just over 4 hours, all the staff were friendly, and I'll definitely be putting the course back into the rotation!
